Adding 4l60e temp gauge/questions
Guys, I've read a lil on here about the temp gauges.
1. What's the best electrical one to get? Have link?
2. I guess it would be an external mount? Like under dash or gauge pod in a-pillar?
3. Is it best to install it into the test port on the side of tranny or is there a way to install into valvebody like factory?
4. How hard is this to do? I'll have the pan off to put the vette servo in.....
Thanks a bunch, any help is greatly appreciated

Personal preference. I like Autometer. I have the Phantom gauge because it matched my North Face gaugeface the best.
Yes, unless you want to be adventurous and install it into the I/P like I did, but mine is an '02. I don't know if that is possible on an '03+
Test port is fine. You could also weld a bung to the pan and install it like that. I have observed the same temps in both locations. Others talk of installing the sender into the cooler feed line.
On a scale of 1 to 5 wrenches (5=call the pros). I give it 2 wrenches.
You have another option of just replacing your current cluster with a cluster that has the tran temp built in. Denalis, Escalades and, I believe, HD models all came with factory tran temp gauge.
